Barbecue, Bacon, and Onion Wrapped Meatloaves

Talk about comfort food! This dinner was really yummy and will be making repeat appearances on our table this fall and winter. I saw this idea over at Hugs and Cookies. The original recipe calls to make 3 meatloaves, but next time I'm going to do 4, just to make it a bit more manageable. We served this with a simple green salad and some red grapes. I hope you enjoy!

Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef
1 egg
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
4 yellow onions
steak seasoning to taste
salt and pepper to taste
dash of Worcestershire sauce
bacon
barbecue sauce

Preparation:
Gently combine meat, egg, bread crumbs, cheese, steak seasoning, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Don't over mix or your meatloaves will be tough. Next, cut the top and bottom off of each onion. Then cut in half, peel off the skin, and separate the onion's outer layers. Evenly divide your meatloaf mixture into 4 portions. Take one portion and ball it in between 2 onion halves. Wrap a slice or two of bacon around each meatloaf and secure with a toothpick. Bake in an oven safe dish with sides (to catch grease) at 425 degrees F or 40-50 minutes or until internal temperature is 160 F. Brush a good coating of barbecue sauce around each meatloaf and bake an additional 5 minutes. Remove toothpicks before serving.
